    From Minnesota, TTT has been around since 2000. They are signed with The Militia Group.

    TTT's sound is equal parts early Brit punk, and garage rock. The songs on "Get Into It" are led by snotty vocals and diverging guitar rhythms. There are fast and slow elements within each song presented here.

The songs wear you down in their repetitive onslaught with vocals that get old real quick. During the reviewing of the album it was difficult for me to listen for more than three songs straight through. While some might find this inspiring, I find it inane.
